At Udemy, we work everyday with educators like yourself, who create content for the benefit of others, so we understand how valuable your content is and are committed to helping you protect it.
How Udemy protects your content
Udemy employs anti-piracy technology, including encoding videos using a proprietary player and attaching a Udemy watermark to all videos. This is why, when you load a video to Udemy, there is both uploading and "processing" time, because we are encoding your videos to make them difficult to steal. We are closely working with a company that specializes in protecting content on behalf of creators. This company, Corsearch, deploys sophisticated monitoring technology and experienced content analysts to quickly evaluate and take action on prospectively infringing links. More information about Corsearch is available on their official website.
With Corsearch, we are able to successfully delist more than 98% of infringing URLs.
For a motivated pirate, however, any content that appears on a computer screen is vulnerable to theft. This is a problem across the industry.
